The new trailer for their &#8220;Next Car Game&#8221; shows off a demolition derby style title with dynamic car damage going back to their original roots of FlatOut and RidgeRacer.

According to the developers, this new racing will make us &#8216;feel the carnage&#8217; as the company was able &#8211; thanks to modern technology &#8211; to fully realize what they imagined back in the FlatOut days &#8211; debris-filled scenes of high speed carnage. As Bugbear said: &#8220;We&#8217;re taking destruction racing to a level you&#8217;ve never seen before. We can put tons more metal and dirt in the air now, and that's exactly what we're going to do.

"We are returning to our roots to make this game, re-interpreting what initially excited us way back in FlatOut days," explained Bugbear. "It's full-contact motor sports with cars built for crashing. We're doing it because our fans have been asking for this kind of game for years. We get the messages every week. Nobody else seems capable of delivering what they need, and there hasn't been a proper demolition derby game for a long time.

In 1995, Reflections Interactive began work on a franchise for Sony called Destruction Derby. This franchise was highly&nbsp;successful&nbsp;(it was my first PlayStation game alongside of Oddworld in fact!), but in 2004, the series sort of tanked. Where Reflections failed, Bugbear Entertainment took over the reigns with FlatOut, the spiritual successor to Derby. The FlatOut franchise saw three releases before quietly returning to the shadows in 2007. .. <br /><br /><i>News sourced from: <a href="http://www.destructoid.com/" class="external" target="_blank" class="external" target="_blank">Destructoid</a></i><br /> 2013-02-24T21:10:00+00:00 http://www.simracingworld.com/news/aggregate/external/2538883-bugbears-next-car-game-announced/rss/ Bugbear Entertainment, best known for the FlatOut series, has released a teaser trailer for Next Car Game.

As the studio behind the FlatOut franchise, they've shown they can create a driving game that melds crazy excitement with solid handling. Ridge Racer is a series best known for slick arcade racing rather than over-the-top crashes, making Bugbear seem like an odd developer choice. Can the Finnish studio help Ridge Racer move into a new direction, or is Ridge Racer Unbounded heading up a dead alley at dangerously fast speeds?

Developed by Bugbear Entertainment, Ridger Racer: Unbounded looks like a mix between Split Second and FlatOut. Fans of this legendary series might find this new iteration a bit awkward, but there is no doubt that this new Ridge Racer game looks fun and interesting.

Like the old saying goes, time makes fools of us all and I came out of Ridge Racer: Unbounded with a newfound sense of optimism not just about this game itself -although at this very moment I think it could prove to be the break-out surprise of 2012- but of life as a whole, anything was possible!

Unbounded however is exactly what its name suggests; a no-holds-barred riot of a racer. This change of pace, style, and approach is due mostly in part to Namco Bandai handing the reigns of the series over to external developer Bugbear Entertainment, known for their FlatOut action racing titles." <br /><br /><i>News sourced from: <a href="http://www.n4g.com" class="external" target="_blank" class="external" target="_blank">N4G.com</a></i><br /> 2012-03-09T03:10:00+00:00 http://www.simracingworld.com/news/aggregate/external/2142674-ridge-racer-unbounded-delayed/rss/ As you may have deduced from the fact that Ridge Racer Unbounded is not on store shelves today, Namco Bandai's car 'em up has been delayed.

The good news is that the premise of the game is strong; bad implementations can be fixed with sufficient effort, but bad ideas are forever bad and no amount of work will fix them. Perhaps if there is a Flatout 4, it will concentrate more on the fundamentals of a good racing game while keeping to the vision of game play that takes a different path that the rest of the pack.

FlatOut 3 is a flat out disaster. You probably played or at least heard of the previous Bugbear-developed FlatOut games and how pretty much everyone found them enjoyable. The game I reviewed, however, is only a FlatOut in name. Everything about the experience is so dismal, broken and uninspired, its existence alone is a slap in the face to racing fans.
